How far do you commute in your Smart?
I should have mine in a few weeks and will commute 32 miles (one way), mostly highway driving. Well it's actually country driving at 60+ mph. Anyone out there going further on a daily basis?

Car does fine, mileage isn't the GREATEST but the looks you get more than make up for it ;)

Not me. I bought it for the short 8 mile hop to work and back. Highway and freeway will be a rarity for my baby, except maybe over to Long Beach or Santa Monica.

No Commute
I'm fortunate not to have to commute any longer. My smart is just for fun.

6 miles each way city streets. If I ever stop giving rides to everyone I should average a tank per month.
